I am asuming you mean older Darton Vapor?
Coupound bows under 36" like many of the older Vapors may be hard to shoot due to the shorter ATA ...the shorter the bow the more nock pinch due to string angle...the longer the draw the more angle also..
so a Release may be best...
When release's first came out I actually lobbied to have them banned...new fangled technology taking away from the traditional means...lol
Then I had several back operations and the only way I could shoot was with one of those new fangled releases...got three Robin hoods in less than a week that first week...opened my eyes on accuracy..
Havent turned back since...and most modern bows are designed for release...36" or less ATA
Hats off to those that still shoot fingers and do a great job...everyone should try it...
Does no harm to try a release...
